Spiked Hot Chocolate Recipe

Tip #1: Play with your ingredients.

Things like hazelnut liqueur (Frangelico) and Bailey’s Irish Cream are also excellent (alcoholic) components for your spiked hot chocolate. Discover what tastes delicious to you, and use it!

Tip #2: Top off your cocoa cocktail with home-made whipped cream. In a shaker, combine heavy cream, sugar to taste and ice and shake vigorously for at least a minute, or until the cream is thick. Pour in a swirl on top of the hot chocolate, add a cherry, and enjoy!

1/2 cup chocolate chips

1 cup cream

1/2 cup rum

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup butterscotch liqueur

How to Serve

You can heat the finished hot chocolate once more before serving to make sure it’s piping hot, just the way we like it and pour it in a Clear Square Plastic Mini Coffee Tea Cup!
